What's fucked is that at this rate the best most of us fans can hope for is that the idiots on our respective teams refrain from saying anything. I'm pretty sure if MacKinnon opened up his mouth and this type of shit fell out I'd have to turn in my avs fan club card.

Everything really sucks shit these days.

Over/under on Justin Abdelkader voting for Trump.

Oh wait, that was last year. I'm pretty sure the answer was over.

It's so frustrating for me

Well said. It’s sad to think that players of the game we love are fucking idiots.

Very frustrating, especially as a minority.

I missed you.

Tigers getting the first pick in 2018, Red Wings expected to in the top 5 of the Entry Draft and Lions looking like playoff contenders. It sure ain't 2011 anymore.

It's amazing that after nearly 10 years those 2008 contracts are still killing us.

I'll never leave again.

Apparently Avs asked Pouliot and a first from Pens for Duchene and they said no

The worst part is that despite knowing it's the only Trump supporting sports league, at least publicly, I can't fucking quit it. Hockey season is what holds me together for 6 months* a year

it'd be more but my team never makes the playoffs🤷🏻

[Cat Party]

How much more effort is NHL fantasy over NFL fantasy? Like how does it work since there isn't a "week" format where every team plays an equal amount of games in one week. I like that in NFL fantasy I need to put in minimal effort so it stays fun and not feel like work.

Way more work. I quit fantasy hockey a long time ago because of the constant lineup shuffling. You can run 3 fantasy football leagues and still put in less work than one fantasy hockey team.

Where you seeing that? if true that be a huge steal for the Pens considering they have no faith in Pouliot and he has little value

 

[DopeyFish]

The more Cs you have, the better your faceoffs should be and gives you backups in any faceoff toss. Also NHL Cs are typically 2-way, so better defensive coverage.

It has the added benefit of matchup hell. You have 3 dangerous Cs and all of a sudden someone is getting low QoC and they can exploit the fuck out of it.

Here's the problem with all of these scenarios that seem too good to be true: No GM in this league would turn down Duchene for Pouliot and a first. Which means of course that if there even is any weight to what this guy heard, there was more involved with the deal that made it fall through.

Just the same as some dude on Montreal radio (according to bask) saying the Avs turned down PK Subban for Duchene, a deal that is hugely lopsided isn't going to get turned down by the winner of the deal in any scenario.

I know why you'd want more centres but why would the pens want more centres and pay a premium for a guy like Duchene? Pens have some of the best centre-depth in the league.

A premium is a bad defenseman and a late first round pick now? Good christ.

My bad, I'm not commenting on the rumored ask. I'm saying in general, Sakic wants a premium and I don't know why the pens would entertain it.

I wouldn't be stunned at all if Sakic has had a ton of lowball offers, something like ohhh say Pouliot and a first, from teams who are only interested if they can arrange a fleecing. Pens would be on that list in my opinion. Not willing to entertain anything that they aren't clearly screwing the Avs over in.

Ahh, that would make far more sense. Out of curiosity, what would you consider fair value for Duchene?

 

[Unhandled Exception]

Duchene + a pick for

Murray + Jenner + Schroeder

Something along those lines.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Horvat & Boeser

 

[Marvie_3]

Duchene + a pick for

Seabrook + a 5th

Something along those lines.

Yes
